Isnt the furniture a nod to Beauty and beast and in the final moments a metaphor for maturity?

Isnt the furniture a nod to Beauty and beast and in the final moments a metaphor for maturity? No clue, that never occurred to me watching it. And since they reference other musicals in one way or another throughout the show, if that was the case wouldn’t it have made sense for them make some joke about the furniture at some point? |

I saw it as more of a joke about having a low budget.

All of their ‘long game’ jokes and references just bit them on their arses though, like the whole ‘big fancy musical’ turning out to not be one. It just wasn’t anywhere near ready for anything other than a fringe crowd, and should have been priced accordingly from the outset.

A short season in the Other Palace would have been good

I thought the human furniture was a way to have the ensemble on stage for some of the dance numbers. Instead of dancers appearing from no where and for no logical reason, this way they were already there (not that dancing furniture makes sense, but that was the only reason I could find for it while watching the show)
